I had an opportunity to meet a police officer who involved in Memali tragedy. Perhaps not directly involved, when he was in charge of the command center instead of 'turun padang'. Here is the other side of the story:
The police force was to capture Ustaz Ibrahim Libya. From the source, it's true that the police force released shots to the villagers. But that was for defense purpose - where the police force member was down. The shot was first started by the villagers themselves.
The question might be in your mind now - how could the villagers, which are always claimed as weak and innocent - might own weapons and released shots to the officers? Well I have no idea either. But to think of it, there is no reason for police force to bring over 'kereta perisai' and armors if there are no threat.
The police officer whom I interviewed visited the tragedy site. From his own eyes, he witnessed the body of Ustaz Ibrahim Libya laying on the floor. He looked calm and peaceful. May Allah bless him.
Honestly I do not know the truth. I am confused. And I am hoping to know the truth.
